disabled patch7 (doesn't apply; seems like ifenslave.c has changed enough so additional code review is needed to determine whether it's still needed or how to port it -- still unpatched new source is reportedly working, see the referenced bugreport)

Removed traceroute6 in favour of the traceroute package.

Removed backwards compatibillity symlinks from /usr/sbin/.

Removed verifying permissions and group owner for ping since it'scontrolled by control(8) facility.

Keep ping at mode 700 ("restricted") in the package, but default it to "public" in %post when the package is first installed. This avoids a race and fail-open behavior where a "restricted" ping could be "public" during package upgrades (Owl).
